Marianna, Thanks for letting us know. But we have to ask: What is it about this dongle driver that doesn't work? What are the symptoms that we would look for to show that it's not working? We know these things: -- 10.4.7 fixed a known security hole in the OS. -- Downgrading to 10.4.6 from 10.4.7 via Apple's "archive and install" option does not always
